Scrum.org

Le Daily Scrum n’est-il pas l’événement où l’on vient vérifier que l’équipe de développement avance comme prévu ? C’est une question récurrente lors de mes formations Scrum. Elle arrive souvent en début de session, un peu comme une pâle évidence à confirmer. Et pourtant, il s’agit bien d’un mythe, aussi toxique que répandu.

The Hidden Dangers of Refactoring [Comic]

Teamweek

A couple of years ago I had what looked like a leaky sewage pipe in my apartment. We started taking out the wall to get to the root of the problem. It wasn’t long before half of the apartment was stripped to the bones. During one of our long and sweary smoke breaks, my builder—normally a chatty fellow—grew awfully quiet, took a long drag of the cigarette and said: “It’s easier to tear everything down and build a house from scratch”.
